The Ninth Liao Lancers were raised as part of the Liao Lancers brigade. As was traditional with the Liao Lancers, approximately one third of their force consisted of citizens of their name world, in this case Hassad. The Eighth was the first of the new Liao Lancer units commissioned after the repeal of the Council Edict of 2650. There is some evidence that the Ninth was created by promoting a Home Guard unit from Hassad to the Lancers brigade.[1]
